Comment:

Hard class, but she gives you several quizzes for extra credit. Her tests are difficult but she has review sessions a day or two before each exam and literally goes over everything that will be on the exam, as well as explains how to do every problem and essay questions for which you will see on the exam. Review sessions 100s on the exams

Comment:

She is a great person, she can be helpful at times but she makes the class very difficult. You have to watch the videos and look at the powerpoints before class other you will have no idea what she is talking about. She doesn't do a very good job teaching the material so be ready to teach yourself.

Comment:

I got an A in this class but the entire semester I thought I was looking at a B. I nailed the final so that helped my grade a ton. There were lots of projects yet clarity was not there. You have to teach yourself and put in the time, but like I did, you can do well too. Shes really nice if you do not ask stupid questions and pay attention.

Comment:

Many opportunities to get an A. She gives a lot of extra credit and gives a lot of practice prior to the tests for the hardest material. She doesn't explain a lot of the info that will be in the multiple choice section. She;s very nice but her lectures can be very boring.

Comment:

This is the Merged Business Ssimulation class. Are you a good student who just needs that little excitement of getting a D or an F ? Do you like getting "I'm not your personal assistant" kind of an answer when you ask a normal question in class ? Bryant has the perfect Professor for ya! Try Yobaccio for $3200/semester and you're sure to get an F!

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS, you should avoid her at all costs because she is terrible...she doesn't like to answer answer questions and when you ask her to do an example she says no, the aplia is ridiculous and she doesn't help you at all but picks on people in class. Don't take her if you actually want a good grade, everyone fails the tests

Comment:

This lady is insane! Seriously. I'm the nicest student ever and most of my professors love me. But, this evil gnome is very annoying! She gives you attitude when you ask a necessary question politely.. None of the people in my class have an idea what's going on. KILL YOURSELF INSTEAD OF TAKING ANY OF HER CLASSES! You'll end up doing it after anyway

If you want a 340 y.o. drama queen Professor who gives you attitude for politely asking a question then this is the lady for you! She is very rude! Very much like an annoying DMV employee! Absolutely terrible. She is really hard and the worst; she picks on you for NO reason! Seriously WTH! I can't believe this woman is teaching!! Do NOT take her!

Comment:

Great professor, actually cares about students as opposed to just showing up. More concentrated on marked improvement and overall understanding than strictly grade based. Easy to talk to and finds ways to make the concepts apply to you. Take if you can, shes tough but very helpful.

Comment:

Betty...She knows finance but not teaching. Everyone fails the test and she ends up scaling them like 20pts. Ohh and she gives a lot of bonus to make up for her incoherent rambling in class about her awful powerpt. slides. The combo of her annoying voice and bad teachning skills makes for a headache/ Wouldn't recomend

oh betty you designed the IB major and you have ZERO real world experience. Maybe ask someone who actually works in the field before you create a horrible program. Oh yea you were a horrible teacher too.

Comment:

I don't even like finance, and I got an A in the class. She helps out so much because she has a review session right before the exams, she basically tells you what's on the exam, all you have to do is know it for the day of the exam. TAKE HER CLASS...with a little bit of effort you could get a high B, or even an A.

She is awful at teaching, makes little sense, she got mad at me when i asked her to do an example!!! and huffs and puffs when you ask her questions....avoid!!

I honestly don't understand why she's so low - I enjoyed the class and she was very approachable and made things fun ... I would take a course with her again.
